Chapter Ninety-Seven: Knowing that this matter must be practiced

Shi Zhuang is an extremely sensible person.

It seemed like a chat with Li Ze unintentionally, but he was talking to Li Ze about some key points of leading troops to fight. He now saw clearly the strengths and weaknesses of the young master he served. Li Ze could not compare with the framework of controlling the form, setting goals, and trend development. But in terms of specific combat details, he was not very enlightened. Strictly speaking, Li Ze's current situation is much more serious than not knowing anything. Because he was in a state of being in a state of not understanding, probably because he read too much books and practiced too little.

It can be called a model of military talk on paper.

Li Ze already knew this at this serious military meeting today.

The conversation with Shi Zhuang made him understand that it is not something that can be ambushed casually in deep mountains and forests. The choice of terrain is very particular. It is not only necessary to hide people, but also to facilitate the initiation of the attack. Otherwise, if you ambush it, you will be more conducive to the development of the enemy, and you will be looking for death on your own. What's more, Li Ze has a team of three thousand people, so this place is even harder to find.

As long as it is a regular army, it will inevitably be divided into three parts during the process of marching: the outpost, the central army, and the rear. It is essential to explore the scouts. If you want to hide in a corner and wait for others to walk in front of you and then suddenly jump out to chop people, don’t think about it. This is a trick of street gangsters fighting. If you fight with a regular army, you may not be able to kill a few scouts at the head.

The scout's exploration range is large, and it is basically impossible to wait in a certain place to make arrows scattered like rain. The range of bows and arrows can have huge lethality within dozens of meters. For example, Chen Changping's powerful bow that can cause great killing to the enemy beyond 150 steps. Looking at Chengde, few people can pull it, and it may not be accurate if they can pull it.

Although Li Ze has a huge advantage in terms of numbers, if both sides clearly show their striking and fighting, he really can't take advantage. Tu Lichun, Shi Zhuang and the guard leaders have a clear understanding of this. There are 400 people on the other side, each wearing armor, and there is no comparison in the arms.

Therefore, this battle must be bound to the enemy in a specific place to fight, try to gather your own strength and limit the enemy's performance. Based on the above characteristics, there are actually only a handful of places that can be selected.

Baizhangyan is undoubtedly the most suitable place.

After walking through Baizhang Rock, it is basically equivalent to going out of the mountain. Considering that after coming out of the mountain, they have to run forward and attack continuously, and then fight with the enemy, so in this wide area with a source of living water, they must rest and accumulate physical strength.

For them, they have already walked through the most dangerous and complex areas. When they see the terrain here, they will inevitably loosen their psychology, and the scouts will not be too far away because this open space is clear at a glance.

Listening to Shi Zhuang telling stories in combination with some practical cases and telling stories to himself, Li Ze nodded like a chicken pecking at rice while lamenting in his heart that he had been deeply poisoned when watching those movies and TV series in his previous life. Isn’t it easy to ambush? He found out the enemy’s specific plan, then ambushed the enemy’s marching route, and then the time came, a loud roar was like rain, and then everyone rushed out, the enemy was in chaos and our army won.

The premise for this is to be based on the fact that the enemy's commander is an extremely stupid guy! Not only that, but also the middle and lower-level officers are all fools, so this kind of ambush may work.

Today I was embarrassed, so Li Ze simply opened up and asked more questions.

"Night attack?" Shi Zhuang chuckled, "Young Master, I have fought many wars. Sometimes I obey other people's commands, and sometimes I personally command them. But so far, there has never been a night attack like this!"

"Why?" Li Ze was greatly surprised.

"It's too difficult!" Shi Zhuang replied very simply. "First of all, if it is a confrontation between large troops, the mobilization of troops cannot be concealed from the enemy. Furthermore, the sneak attack of a small army cannot shake the overall situation for a well-trained army. Even if you succeed in a while, you only need to follow the most common methods. The attacking enemy is basically a meat bun to beat the dog, and there is no return."

"Besides, most of the soldiers nowadays have night blindness. At night, they are almost like blind people. How can they fight? A surprise attack at night, there is no sign of command, no gold gongs and drums, and there is no command and contact between them. They rely entirely on pre-war predictions and agreements, but what if something unexpected happens?"

"Our people do not have night blindness!" Li Ze still has some understanding of night blindness.

"That's because they are lucky. They follow the young master, have no worries about food and clothing, and live a good life. In fact, most of the soldiers in the palace have night blindness. The young and strong people in other places in Wuyi that just arrived today have absolutely many night blindness. If the young master doesn't believe it, we can go out and test it now." Shi Zhuang said.

Li Ze shook his head: "Since you say yes, it's probably all right. But how did I succeed in seeing so many classic night attacks in the book?"

"It is precisely because of the few that it has become a classic and has been recorded in history." Shi Zhuang said: "This is not the conventional way of fighting in war. If the young master is careful, he will find that any dangerous combat method that the party at an absolute disadvantage has to do. If it succeeds, it is famous in history. If it fails, it will disappear. The young master only saw those classic cases of success, but did not see that behind this success, there are countless failure cases. Just like this time, it seems that we are

There are many people, but if we really go to a night raid as the young master said, I am sure that we will definitely fail. The difference between professional soldiers and amateur soldiers is that they are not arrogant when they win, and they are not discouraged when they lose, and they have extremely strong resilience. The soldiers of the secret camp will probably become such elite soldiers and generals when they fight in a battle. As for the government soldiers, it will take longer to become such a team. In my opinion, when this army fights many times and the personnel changes to one-third, they will almost have some characteristics of this army."

"The truth is right." Li Ze felt a little lost.

"Young Master, I hope I won't encounter a time when I need to fight like this in my life. I prefer to crush the enemy with a strong attitude and defeat the enemy head-on. This is the posture of the strong. The strong don't need a treacherous plan, they just need to push over at the right time." Shi Zhuang said with a smile.

Li Ze bowed his hand and said sincerely: "I have been taught. I think the battle is too simple, and I have read all the books."

Shi Zhuang smiled and returned the favor: "Young Master is extremely smart, but you haven't experienced these things. After experiencing them a few times, you will naturally understand. Although you need to read military books, you only need to understand the principles and methods of war. If you want to truly understand what war is, you must have personal experience. However, you don't have to pay too much attention to such things. The countless generals who have been famous in history have never even been to the battlefield. They only need to formulate a strategy for war. Implementing that is the business of ordinary military generals below. To formulate a correct strategy is the most difficult. To be honest, the essential gap between the soldiers on both sides is not too big. A large part of the battle between the two armies is factors outside the battlefield."

Li Ze touched the black and shiny hair on his head and smiled and said, "I know I am very smart, but that's fine. In the future, I will focus on formulating the direction and scale of the war, and decide who to fight. As for how to fight, I will ignore it. I will only ask the result. Try to be the famous general you said who never goes to the battlefield but is also known in history."

Listening to Li Ze's humorous words, Shi Zhuang couldn't help laughing.

Being able to correctly recognize one's shortcomings is what Shi Zhuang admires most about Li Ze. What the generals are most afraid of is that the people above pretend to understand and have to point fingers at everything, and finally make a big mess.

It was already late at night when the secret camp was silent. Li Ze's originally a little hot and restless heart had calmed down. Things had come to this point, and the worry was redundant. Whether it was Shi Zhuang or Tu Lichun, they were all experienced people, and the rest, such as Shen Congxing, Chen Bing, and Chu Sheng, were also the ones who had died from the battlefield. Although the Chen Changping brothers did not have the experience of commanding battles, they were not lacking in fighting skills. They could be used as guys who charge in the battle. They had a advantage in the territory and were six times more than their opponents. If they lost such a battle, then they might as well go back and roll up the bedding and take their mother Xia He to escape all the way. What else can they talk about fighting with Li Che?

I woke up naturally after sleeping. I missed the time for normal morning class. I hurriedly got up. The originally full secret camp seemed empty. Tu Lichun and Shen Congxing and others had already set off, leaving only Shi Zhuang and Chen Changping.
